Spencer L. Layton and Dr. Stephan D. Lindeman, Music At the beginning of the twentieth century, the sounds that emerged from Europe differed greatly from the music produced in Africa and the Far East. Many composers of this time were trained in the musical traditions and theory of Western Europe. When they came to America, […]
TWIN PASSIONS. BALLROOM DANCE AND GRAPHIC DESIGN, A VISUAL INTERPRETATION.
Stephanie Lawrence and Professor Linda Sullivan, Visual Arts I spent five months on the research and preparation part of my project and another five on the illustrations and type solutions. I am still in the process of screen printing my posters and expect them to be completed in another four months. The first poster of […]
ISAIAH IN THE BOOK OF MORMON AND OLD TESTAMENT: A COMPARISON IN LANGUAGE USAGE
John Larsen and Dr. Allen Manning, Linguistics Project The similarities between the Bible and the Book of Mormon have often been pointed out by Scholars and critics alike. My research was to compare language similarities in the two texts linguistically. For twelve chapters in the Book of Mormon the text runs almost exactly parallel to […]
PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSES OF THE GEOGRAPHIC ORIGIN OF STLV-I AND HTLV-I WITH EXTENSIVE SEQUENCE SAMPLING: EVIDENCE FOR AN AFRICAN ORIGIN WITH SUBSEQUENT SEPARATE VIRAL EVOLUTION IN ASIA AND AFRICA
Chris R. Kelsey and Dr. Keith A. Crandall, Zoology Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is a retrovirus believed to be the etiologic agent of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and HTLV-I -associated myelopathy/ tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). HTLV-I is a member of a related group of retroviruses, known collectively as primate T-cell lymphotropic viruses […]
GENETIC FINGERPRINTS: SUMMARY OF CREATIVE RESEARCH GRANT AND ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Corey D. Judd and Professor Wayne Kimball, Visual Arts The following project consists of 11 color lithographs that address different moral issues of genetic technology. Lithography is a form of printmaking where images are hand printed on a press, using either stones or aluminum plates to hold the inked image. The following is an overview […]
WINTER ACTIVITY OF BATS IN CACHE, JUAB AND UTAH COUNTIES, UTAH
Benjamin T. Jones and Dr. Duke S. Rogers, Zoology Historically, studies of bat activity have been conducted during spring, summer and fall when migratory bats are most abundant and non-migratory bats are most active. Due to the high energy expenditure required to maintain body temperatures sufficient for flight (Fenton, 1992) and the low availability of […]
PEDIATRIC STUDY TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT OF PARASYMPATHETIC REINNERVATION TO THE HUMAN HEART POST TRANSPLANT
Aaron W. Jones and Professor R. Paul Evans, Zoology Until recently, it had been assumed that following cardiac transplantation, nerve impulses to the heart were permanently disconnected. Within the past few years, multiple studies prompted by patient complaints, observations, and simple curiosity have proven the surprising fact that the accelerator (or sympathetic) nerves to the […]
FOLLOWING HIS SHADOW: THE HAIKU OF SANT¨KA
Keith Johnson and Dr. Van C. Gessel, English, Asian & Near Eastern Languages Apart from an all too brief period of popularity during the early ’80’s, the poetry of Taneda Sant©ka (1882-1940) has languished in relative anonymity. He has yet to enjoy the household-name status of fellow haijin like Bash©, IkkyÅ, Ry©kan, et al. This […]
IDENTIFYING SHEEP PARENTAGE BY POLYMORPHIC GENETIC MARKERS IN SUFFOLK SHEEP
Jennifer A. Jerman and Professor Robert L. Park, Animal Science Polymorphic genetic markers aid in parentage testing among individuals of the same breed. Suffolk sheep randomly mate and the need for accurate, reliable, and rapid testing for resolution of such mating is mandatory for the animals’ record and further genetic production. Therefore, it is necessary […]
MOLECULAR MECHANICS CALCULATIONS OF THE DISSOCIATION ENERGY OF ALKALINE EARTH METAL CATIONS AND VARIOUS CROWN ETHER COMPLEXES
Darrell E. Hurt and Dr. Randall B. Shirts, Chemistry and Biochemistry Since their discovery in 1967, crown ethers have proved a valuable tool for chemical separations of charged species that are otherwise inseparable.1 Crown ethers are a type of ligand, or a molecule that works by binding to another chemical species without breaking or forming […]
